HP StorageWorks Disk Array XP operating system configuration guide for IBM AIX XP24000, XP12000, XP10000, SVS200, v01 (A5951 - 96047, June 2007)

Example
For an OPEN-V CVS LUSE volume with capacity = 49 MB and n = 4:
# of cylinders = 49 × 16/15 × 4 = 52.26 × 4 = 53 × 4 = 212
Note 6:
The capacity of an OPEN-3/8/9/E CVS volume is specified in MB, not number of cylinders. The
capacity of an OPEN-V CVS volume can be specified in MB or number of cylinders. You set the
volume size using XP Remote Web Console, XP Command View (XP arrays only), or Command View
XP Advanced Edition Software.
